Wilderness isn't one of those shows that's going to challenge you with a plot full of moral dilemmas and high drama. It's a show that’s more than a bit mordant and campy, but that and the performances of Coleman and Jackson-Cohen add to its appeal.
Despite its wasted potential, Wilderness, as an overall package, at least manages to fulfill the craving for a buzzy thriller.
It is all solid, satisfying and glossily good-looking stuff. It knows what it’s doing and the script is well above simply serviceable level.
It’s one of those easy-to-digest thrillers perfect for a Friday night – look, we’ve all had a hard week and just want to watch some mindless nonsense while having a big drink.
Coleman and Jackson-Cohen give compelling performances, but they can’t overcome the listless plotting of “Wilderness,” which curiously steamrolls right through its final pivotal 10 minutes.
What Wilderness unintentionally leaves us with is a soulless miniseries whose characters are so dull you can neither root for them nor hate them.
Wilderness goes from light on its feet to quite leaden, from a good Lifetime movie to a bad Lifetime movie that thinks it’s commenting on the tropes of Lifetime movies but doesn’t recognize that the good Lifetime movies are already doing that.
